What’s New with TAB?

Subtle changes taking place in the print edition of TAB; let us know which content, sections you like the best

You may have noticed the initial tweaks we have made with the print edition of The Alabama Baptist already. 

Along with moving the editorial section from page 2 to page 3, we decided to tighten the space for sharing opinion pieces so we can cover two different topics each week.

We also aired out the main editorial copy so it is easier on the eye as you read through it.

Traditionally newsprint has needed to cram as many words as possible into the existing space on the pages, but we are now using a larger font size for all of our articles to see if that might be less tiring on you to read.

Our goal is to create a more relaxed and calm experience as you read through the paper, which we hope also allows you to make it through the entire issue more quickly. 

You know we don’t want you to miss out on any of the special stories we are sharing, but we do understand time and energy restraints so we hope these subtle changes help.

You may have noticed we freshened up the paper’s flag on the front. Again it is an attempt at a more simple presentation.

And we want to hear more from you, so we created a two-page spread called Your Voice that will run each week on pages 4 and 5. Be sure to check it out.

The Alabama Baptist newspaper has been an award-winning publication for more than 20 years now, so the changes we are making are not because there were concerns. We are merely attempting to build on the foundation that has been laid year after year throughout our nearly 176-year history. We are excited about sharing these new elements with you and look forward to receiving your feedback.
